Glenn Beck Just Revealed What He’d Do To Ted Cruz ‘If These Accusations Were True’

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz has vociferously denied allegations levied in a recent National Enquirer article that he has had numerous extramarital affairs throughout his political career. Many of his supporters, including radio host Glenn Beck, have similarly denounced the tabloid for spreading rumors without sufficient evidence.

In a recent broadcast, Beck acknowledged that, if true, the series of affairs would affect his endorsement of Cruz.

“I will drop him like a hot potato if these accusations were true,” he said, though he went on to explain why he feels there is no substance to the article and associated gossip.

Beck went on to begin a list of five reasons he believes Cruz is innocent, though a commercial break cut short his dialogue with show producer Steve Burguiere, better known to listeners as Stu.

The scholarly demeanor Cruz displays on the debate stage, he said, is the same personality he possesses in social situations.

Furthermore, Beck said there is little chance of such a big secret being kept quiet for so long — especially when it concerns a figure as divisive as Cruz is among fellow lawmakers.

“If you are going to be a sexual predator,” he said, ” — and that’s what you would have to be for five women in four years, a sexual predator — you would see signs of it.”

Finally, the host pointed to Cruz’s ambition as a natural deterrent to such risky behavior.

More than a few social media users, including Texas Monthly senior editor Erica Grieder, took Beck up on his challenge to provide more reasons the rumors about Cruz are likely untrue. She provided a 20-tweet series of thoughts surrounding the legitimacy of the Enquirer’s allegations.
